• Equivalent of PowerShell for script following VBScript determine the active node of the cluster?

  Hello world

  I wonder if there is another similar Powershell script that can determine the currently active node of an MSCS?

  What follows is done on VBScript

  strClusterWMINameString = "winmgmts:\\ExchangeServerCluster01\root\cimv2"
  Set objWMISvc = GetObject( strClusterWMINameString )
  Set colItems = objWMISvc.ExecQuery( "Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem", , 48 )
  For Each objItem in colItems
      strComputerName = objItem.Name
      WScript.Echo "The Cluster " & strClusterWMINameString & " active node is " & strComputerName
  Next
  
  
  

  Any kind of help is appreciated.

  Thank you.

  In PowerShell, you can do this with:

  (Get-WmiObject Win32_ComputerSystem - SIEXCLU01 of the computer). Name

• PowerShell commands for orders esxcfg on esx

  I am running some esxcfg commands on my servers ESX 4 to create a vswitch and vmkernel ports with a mtu of 9000 (frames) value, but I would run rather these commands in powershell equivalent.  Esxcfg commands are:

  create a new vswitch called vswitchA:

  esxcfg-vswitch - a vSwitchA

  Then, set the MTU of the vSwitch.

  m - 9000 vSwitchA esxcfg-vswitch

  the list of all vSwitches so you can confirm your changes and settings

  esxcfg-vswitch - l

  create the portgroup port1

  esxcfg-vswitch - a vSwitch9 port1

  Then create the VMkernel interface with the value of the intellectual property and mtu.

  esxcfg-vmknic - a-i 172.16.0.1 - n 255.255.255.0 m 9000 iSCSI

  confirm your settings.

  esxcfg-vmknic - l

  Can someone tell to get orders for orders above esxcfg powershell

  Only the portgroup, but you can use the cmdlet Set-VirtualSwitch which also has an MTU setting.

• Log in as root, esxcfg-firewall not found

  Hello

  I'm under esxi 4.1 on vmware workstation.

  using putty, ssh esxi host and logged in as root.

  Esxcfg-firewall command I tried, but it has given below

  "- ashes: esxcfg-firewall: not found".

  I have read the forum and found cases where the su - correction of the problem.

  but I'm already root, but can't excute esxcfg-firewall.

  even tried-su, but still command not found.

  strange thing is I can get orders of work below:

  esxcfg-nics, esxcfg-vswitch, esxcfg-road esxcfg-vmknic

  but the two commands below are not found:

  esxcfg-firewall, esxcfg-vswif

  Am I missing some parameters?

  Any input will be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  On ESXi command esxcfg-firewall does not exist, fundamentally ESXi has no firewall like ESX, you can enable or disable some services via vSphere client or ESXi console.

  See you soon

• esxcfg-nas - d does nothing when lance in the cron script

  Hi all

  Here's my test code (/ tmp/test.sh):

  unit of fusion-mu/vmfs/volumes/admin_nfs & gt; & gt; /tmp/Watcher.log

  esxcfg-Sin - d admin_nfs & gt; & gt; /tmp/Watcher.log

  esxcfg-vmknic - d "IP storage" & gt; & gt; /tmp/Watcher.log

  esxcfg-vswitch - D vSwitch0 "IP Storage" & gt; & gt; /tmp/Watcher.log

  RM-f /etc/cron.d/test.job

  This is going from cron, then the script removes the cron job, it's the output of the cron log (to show that it works!)

  August 25 at 08:35:01 xxx crond [10870]: (root) CMD (/ tmp/test.sh)

  Output of the log created by my test script file:

  # cat watcher.log

  #

  The output of watcher.log is always empty (but it is created when the script is run). My NFS connection remains and so does the news of IP storage.

  If I run the script manually, I get this result:

  #./test.sh

  # cat watcher.log

  NAS admin_nfs deleted volume.

  #

  Why it does not cron?  (I added to cron as root)

  Bit confused... help me!

  have tried to use the absolute as path "/ usr/sbin/esxcfg-nas" in your cron?

• esxcfg - command not found.

  Good afternoon-

  I'm changing the IP address of a remote server ESX, and I get an error:

  esxcfg

  -bash: esxcfg: command not found

  I looked under/usr/bin and the command is not yet listed here.

  I tried "su-" and still get the same error.

  I am 100% positive that I'm connected with root

  Any other suggestions?

  You are looking for specific orders from the network. Try these

  esxcfg-vswif

  esxcfg-vswitch

  esxcfg-vmknic

  You can type man esxcfg-vswif for more information about the command.

  Make sure that you have access to the consoles before attempting to change the IP settings on a remote system.

• Cannot find esxcfg-[something]

  Using the command line when I hit tab esxcfg-so that none of the esxcfg-controls appear, for example, esxcfg-vswitch or esxcfg-vmknic, when I type only e and hit only tab ALD and esxtop appear, I use ESX 3.5. No idea why esxcfg -anything are not there?

• Enable and configure the card NETWORK FT with KS.cfg

  All,

  Did someone familiar with orders that I would need to put KS.cfg to configure and activate FT?  I've included the part of my KS.cfg here, which will install and configure VMotion.  Background information, I have set up with 3 uplinks vSwitch0, all defined for the delivery by port id w/VST virtual.  Each group of ports (Service Console, FT, VMotion) has a primary and standby two uplinks.  The primary it's Eve on the other and vice versa.  My another vSwitch is configured with 4 uplinks and routes based on IP hash w/VST.

• MD3200i / ESXi 4.1 Multipathing problem

  I'm having a problem with a MD3200i and our new virtual server T710 - it works, but performance is absolutely catastrophic.  Here are the details...

  Server is a T710, 4 integrated network interface cards + a 4 Intel Server NIC port.  Execution of ESXi 4.1 was last updated - now that he has 6 guests on it, going to be total 10 (most are lightly loaded special servers). Server is connected to the San 4 direct cable to port 4 Intel Server NIC to 4 ports on the management controller

  We have 4 drives (2 TB SAS) in the SAN - not my first choice - but what the customer wanted. Table is configured as a RAID-10.  We have 3 logical volumes - to 2, to 1 and 750 GB.  Each is formatted as a VMFS data store.

  I followed the instructions in the White Book of Dell to implement the MD3200 with ESX 4.1 and it does not appear that we have multpathing working properly.  The VCenter Client is only show 6 usable track - should be 12 total (3 volumes of x * 4 network cards).

  I went through the docs, a handful of times, can't find anything that seems an obvious problem.  Here's the output of certain commands in the documentation - if something else would be helpful, let me know.  I feel that I'm running a wall of bricks here, any advice would be great!

  Thanks in advance...

  This is a very nice opening message, because it provides the necessary information to begin to understand this. One thing missing is the "esxcli swiscsi nic list d vmhba 33. This confirms if the vmkernels were assigned to the iSCSI initiator.

  Your problem is that you use a single subnet for the entire iSCSI configuration.

  Each NIC (that you want to use for iSCSI) needs its own subnet. If you do not (from your network group) superior to scale 10.10.102.0 - 255, just subnet with a 27-bit subnet mask. The gateways are not relevant because I doubt that your server will try to connect to a San in a completely different network, so you don't have to worry about having to do/create additional gateways on the switch (s).

  Here is an example of setting based on your IP ranges and modify with a subnet mask of 27 bits (255.255.255.224) (to avoid having to get several IP address ranges):

  SAN iSCSI ports:

  Controller 0:

  iSCSI port 0: 10.100.102.1

  iSCSI port 1: 10.100.102.33

  iSCSI port 2: 10.100.102.65

  iSCSI port 3: 10.100.102.97

  Controller 1:

  iSCSI port 0: 10.100.102.2

  iSCSI port 1: 10.100.102.34

  iSCSI port 2: 10.100.102.66

  iSCSI port 3: 10.100.102.98

  News of the iSCSI Server (in a context which is understandable if all goes well):

  -vmnic7-> network->-> 10.100.102.3 vmk1 iSCSI

  -vmnic6-> iSCSI network 2-> vmk2-> 10.100.102.35

  -vmnic5-> iSCSI network 3-> vmk3-> 10.100.102.67

  -vmnic4-> iSCSI network 4-> vmk4-> 10.100.102.99

  This info makes sense?

• Grouping problem 5.5 ESX VIC1225

  my environment is like this:

  2 servers M3 c220 with VIC1225 connected to 2 X Nexus 5548.

  I have created 8 vNIC and 2 vHBAs and install ESX 5.5.

  When tring to add the second card network for matching I lose connectivity for ESX.

  I tried with and wihtout ehterchannel on the side of the nexus but every time is the same.

  When only one side is connected (A Nexus for example) everything is perfect and no performance or connectivity issue, only when adding a second NIC to the lost connection VSWITCH s.

  When political load balancing was route based on things id port was ok up until ESX reboot (when not using VPC)

  When using load balancing VPC was route based on IP hash when but immidietly then loses connectivity.

  on the only configured VIC1225 the VLAN for the vHBA that use VSANS (different between the two sides, of course).

  Padramas, I have seen that familiarize you with this configuration can help you?

  Thank you

  If I understand correctly, packets are lost somewhere between vmk1 and vmnic1 interfaces?

  I tried to change the interfaces physical, but all the same behavior.

  What is my broken hardware?

  Is the driver of the igb broken?

  See you soon

  Marek

  The problem is resolved.

  The question was in the configuration of switch HP (HP Procurve 2530 - 24g). There was a line in the config:

  back-filter

  After you turn off the back of the filter (# filterless back) all started to work.

• Different routes for interfaces VXLAN?

  Hi guys,.

  According to the NSX v2.1 Design Guide:

  The need for static routing is due to the fact that ESXi support only two TCP/IP stacks:

  -VXLAN: This is dedicated to the VMkernel VTEP interface traffic. A dedicated-default route 0.0.0.0/0 can then be configured on the stack for each ESXi pointing the gateway deployed on the local of ToR, and this allows to communicate with the VTEPs deployed in different subnets of Transport distance.

  -By default: This battery is used for all other types of traffic (vMotion, management, storage). It is typical to use a default for purposes of management route (given that the connection to the management interface of vmk0 could be from several remote IP subnets). This means that the static routing configuration is necessary to support communication inter-sous for other types of traffic.

  Sounds good, but is this special VXLAN stack added by default? Or do I need to create and configure? I configured a host with a separate management and VXLAN VMkernel interfaces. I see my traffic VXLAN hustled through the default gateway on the management network.

  I use static IP pools on the direction and the VXLAN interfaces. Does anyone know how to add this route dedicated by default under the battery VXLAN?

  Released of one of my hosts of calculation:

  vmk0 = management

  vmk1 = VXLAN

  VTEP interface is created by NSX during the preparation of the host.

  You can see this step the NSX Getting Started Guide - "step 3: prepare the ESXi NSX hosts" (Getting Started Guide for vSphere NSX).

  Once you have your VXLAN battery in ESXi, you can see its stack via vCenter UI (as usual).

  

  Or if you like CLI:

  . Directions:

  root@Lab1_ESXi1: ~ # esxcli ip network route ipv4 list n vxlan

• Help! VSAN is empty after black out!

  We had a power failure and all the ESX Servers restarted. After that they returned the/vmfs/volumes/vsanDatastore was empty. all our virtual machines were VSAN, including vcenter.

  How can I recover my VM? My entire infrastructure broke down.

  brugh2,

  It certainly looks like a partition of the network occurred. We have a single node in our cluster instead of the three you mentioned should be there. If this is the case on all three nodes, we can form a college and get production line.

  You have a request for Support VMware class? If you do, please PM me the SR number?

  In addition, we can try a few things.

  (1) on each host, make sure that the marking system is intact and we are associated with a vmknic:
  # esxcli vsan network list *.

  (2) if the network is always marked properly (it must be), try to ping each VSAN each VSAN node node (for example, ping your partner machines).

  (3) if the ping works, determine if we use frames. If we are to ensure that the configured completely extended frames (vmknic, vswitch, physical NIC, physical switch). **

  --> If jumbo frames are in use, send a ping large frame without allowing fragmentation:

  # vmkping s - 8500D

  (4) if (if applicable) jumbo frames do NOT work, set the MTU value in the physical switch or drop your vmknics down to MTU 1500.

  (5) if any to the extracted transport level, we very likely have a problem with multicast. Validate your IGMP groups, spying, couriers, etc on the physical switch to ensure that multicast is handled correctly.

  Please let me know how things are going!

  * The output should look like this (from my infrastructure):

  Interface

  VmkNic name: vmk1

  IP Protocol: IPv4

  Interface UUID: 9ebf0854-3a78-734f-b15e-90b11c2b6604

  Multicast TTL: 5

  * You can use the following commands to check the configurations of jumbo frame (I don't use them, so my MTU are every 1500):

  ~ # esxcfg - vmknic - l | grep vmk1<== i="" am="" examining="" vmk1="" because="" that="" is="" the="" interface="" we="" got="" from="">

  ^^ the vmknic is called "VSAN," as it is the name of the port group. If you a vSwitch distributed, you must get the port instead of a portgroup name number (the number will always be in the esxcfg-vmknic output - l).
